**Wednesday, May 11, 2022, 12 Noon ET – Mr. Musk Goes to Washington: Will Twitter’s New Owner Change the Debate About Social Media?**

The acquisition of social media powerhouse Twitter by **Elon Musk**, the world’s richest man, raises a host of issues about social media, free speech, and the power of persuasion in our digital age. Twitter already serves as the world’s de facto public square. But it hasn’t been without controversy, including the platform’s decision to ban former President **Donald Trump** in the wake of his tweets during the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Under new management, will Twitter become more hospitable to Trump and his allies? Does Twitter have a free speech problem? How will Mr. Musk’s acquisition change the debate about social media and Section 230 of the Telecommunications Act?

**Guests for this Broadband Breakfast for Lunch session:**

- **Amy Peikoff**, Chief Policy Officer, Parler
- **Drew Clark** (host), Editor and Publisher, Broadband Breakfast
